I don't have time now, but probably wont have time tomorrow to write anything so I will make it short. I am not adding my name to these lists as I believe the options are flawed in the understandings, it appears that the 2 options have been combined into 1. Releasing 0.95 now means we release what we have as a complete stable release and then start working on 0.96. The second option is to release a 0.95 candidate and hold off new features until it has had a chance to be cleaned of any minor bugs that shouldn't have to wait till 0.96. Now I think we should release a 0.95 candidate and fix any bugs reported before starting to work on 0.96, I also think that is what Karol wanted before Youness explained the options and 'combined' them into 1. Whether we call the release 0.95RC1 followed by 0.95 or 0.95 followed by 0.95.1 is irrelevant, as long as the users know this is stable but still has some minor bugs that we want reported so that we can release a new patched release with no extra features. Whatever we call it 0.95 or 0.95RC1 shouldn't matter, as long as 0.94 recognises it as a new update. We can then correct the code to recognise the next release correctly (before releasing this 1). So what I am proposing is new options: * (1) I want to release 0.95 now but hold off on new features until we have had a chance to fix any bugs that get reported (notifying users that there may be some and we want them to report it - after checking the known issues page..): - Arieh * (2) I want to release 0.95 as a stable build and start working on 0.96 immediately: ///////////////////////////////// Then a second question for those that chose (1) above; * (a) I want this release to be called 0.95RC1 then followed by 0.95: * (b) I want this release to be called 0.95 then followed by 0.95.1 etc * (c) I want this release to be called 0.95.1 then followed by 0.95.2 etc * (d) I don't really care as long as the check for new update is checked/fixed to work with what is chose: -Arieh Further comments: Arieh - I chose (d) as it doesn't matter to me, but out of the first 3 I would probably choose (c) if I was forced to make a choice. As long as we ensure that users were notified on amsn main page, and maybe even on the download page, that this release may contain some bugs but we endeavour to release a new version with just bug fixes and no extra features as soon as the bugs have been found and eradicated. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the JBoss Inc.
